NVIDIA GeForce 1080 GTX Ti Overclocks Great Even With Liquid, Air Coolers; Sets New Pascal Architecture Record

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti broke the performance record of Titan X previously with a clock speed of more than 2.5 GHz. Now, at a 500 MHz clock change, it pushes past the 3 GHz barrier. Again, Kingpin used NVIDIA's reference Founders Edition, which uses a solid layout and component design, with reference variants expected to hit more than 2 GHz overclock by using liquid and air coolers, and LN2 to hit beyond that.

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition is known not only as a great LN2 overclocker, but it overclocks as well on liquid and air coolers, due to the new reference design that packs a high-end PCB. According to reports, this new PCB is modified with 250 Amps of power capacity and features an 8-phase dual-FET design, giving 14 dual-FETs on the PCB that provide increased performance, high stability, superior efficiency and more overclocking potential.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition, meantime, has been sold out in the market after only a few days since launch. This seems to prove its popularity, which is not surprising given that it is a premium grade card at an affordable price of $699, WCCFTech reported.

Meanwhile, Kingpin reportedly used LN2 to keep the GPU of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti cool enough for it to clock past 3GHz, which hit 3024MHz on the dot. Based on reports, the pixel fillrate throughput has reached 229.3 GPixel/s and texture fillrate throughput of 583.7 GTexel/s.

Incidentally, the new 3024MHz GPU clock on the overclocked GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition also signifies a new record for the Pascal architecture, which had earlier been pushed to 3012MHz on the GTX 1060, Tweak Town reported. Watch NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Founders Edition - Review here:
